config 802.1x reauth [port_based ports
[<portlist|all>] |mac_based ports
[<portlist>|all] {mac_address <macaddr>}]
Description The config 802.1x reauth command is used to
re-authenticate a previously authenticated
device based on either MAC address or port
number.
Parameters port_based – This instructs the switch to re-
authorize 802.1x function based only on the port
number. Ports approved for re-authorization can
then be specified.
ports <portlist> − Specifies a range of ports. The
port list is specified by listing the lowest switch
number and the beginning port number on that
switch, separated by a colon. Then the highest
switch number, and the highest port number of
the range (also separated by a colon) are
specified. The beginning and end of the port list
range are separated by a dash. For example,
1:3 specifies switch number 1, port 3. 2:4
specifies switch number 2, port 4. 1:3-2:4
specifies all of the ports between switch 1, port
3 and switch 2, port 4 − in numerical order.
all − Specifies all of the ports on the switch.
mac_based - This instructs the switch to re-
authenticate 802.1x function for a device based
on MAC address. MAC addresses approved for
re-authentication can then be added to a list of
approved MAC addresses. Re-authentication is
approved only for devices with a MAC address
that matches one from the list. Additional
restrictions can be added by requiring a match
